I need strength

Like literally, healthy calories, in the form of protein, green vegetables, iron-rich foods etc. I would like to live in world where healthy meals showed up on my doorstep every four hours and I'd just eat. (To my astonishment, such a thing exists on a fairly grand scale.)I recognize this would flout the joys of cooking.

As it stands, I've had a hard time negotiating some tastiness out of that stubborn broccoli. Yes, I steam it, yes I add salt and pepper and a bit of cheese, but it's kind of an unyielding vegetable. And it doesn't feel right to drown it in something to cover up the taste altogether. And then there's spinach. For chrissake, how unlikable is spinach?
